ABSTRACT:
A method, system, and computer program product for performing a backup operation in a computing environment is provided. A list of keys identifying a plurality of locked records is created at a start of the backup operation. If a first locked record of the plurality of locked records is obtained during the backup operation, a first key identifying the first locked record is added to the list of keys. At a completion of the backup operation, if a second locked record of the plurality of locked records was not moved during the backup operation, a second key identifying the second locked record from the list of keys is dropped. The list of keys is written to a log file as in-flight updates. The in-flight updates are reprocessed through the backup operation using the log file.
